Prime PMC Application Process PDF Print E-mail
  • Once you have selected the home or apartment you want, you will need to apply to lease the property. Applications can be picked up at the office, faxed to you or downloaded from this website.
  • Our application must be completely filled out and signed. Our property managers are available Monday through Friday 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. to answer questions and help you with the application process. No one under 18 can apply as a party to a residential leasing agreement. Signatures on faxed copies are accepted.
  • There is a non-refundable application fee of $35 for each adult or $50 for married couples and $15 for co-signers. If non-married individuals apply, or we cannot pull a joint credit report, each individual must pay a separate $35 fee. This fee is to cover our screening and processing costs.
  • Most applications are processed in 1-2 business days. The application fee is not refundable if the application is not accepted.
  • Our screening process includes a review of references from your previous landlord(s). If the applicant is a homeowner and does not have a prior landlord, a reference from your realtor or property manager is usually sufficient. We would be happy to help an applicant in choosing an appropriate reference.
  • As part of the screening process we verify employment references and salary. For self-employed and non-employment income we verify sources and amounts. Examples of verification of non-employee income are: tax returns, bank and business references, government documents. An applicant's income should be at least three times the rental amount.
  • The screening process also includes running a credit report on individuals and a joint credit report on married couples. If approved, applicants with recent bankruptcies and/or credit problems are required to make advance rent payments. Please discuss any questions or concerns over credit and/or background requirements with the property manager before submitting the application.
  • Pets are accepted or rejected based on the property owner's discretion. Ask one of our property managers if pets are negotiable for the property being applied for. All applications with a pet must have an appropriate pet reference from someone who knows the condition of the property where the pet has previously lived. Prior landlords and/or realtors are examples of appropriate pet references. We do not accept puppies, kittens, Pit Bulls, Dobermen Pinchers, Chows, Rottweilers, German Shephards, or any mix of these breeds.
  • If the application is approved, you will be notified and required to pay by check or money the correct security deposit for the property you have chosen to lease. We will not place a hold on the property until we have received the security deposit.
